Dark Waters (Tom Riddle x Mermaid !reader)

ꕥChapter :6

He was looking at you with curious eyes as you were looking down embarassed to be in this situation with him.

"We should go to class we are late for potion...you shouldn't even be in the girl bathroom anyway...." You said while starting to walk to the door, but he took you arm and with one of his hand, he lift up your chin to look at you right into your eyes.

Your were confused at this sudden move from him you tensed at his touch.  His face was really close and you could see him analyzing each features from yours.

You were looking at him the same way. Riddle was really looking good too. He had this natural dark beauty that was making you curious about what kind of person he really was inside. And it suddenly scares you, you knew you were starting to develop an attraction for him the more you looked at him.

So you pushed him away angry. He scared you. You look at him in confusion and took your arms in your hand as you were turning your face away. And you could feel his dark energy floating around him and you.

"Let's go now.." you almost whispered taking a look to your broken glasses on the floor. You couldn't take them off as they were completly wet. 

"Yes..." He said, looking even more confused from you pushing him away. Nobody had dared to rejected him like that. He wanted to look at her a little more...

You both head out from the room, without saying a word to each other.

Tommy's pov:

I wanted to see her much more closely now... And I didn't want her to pass me like this.

She was looking at me scared. That's how I want people to look at me usualy but this time I didn't want her to fear me...her beautiful e/c eyes were piercing my soul, making me weak at each of her moves.

Why is it like that? I don't fucking know anything about her. And yet I Can feel something strange for her...

She pushed me away and I was angry about that. But I couldn't say nothing affraid she would reject me even more.. it was the last thing that I wanted.

In potion classes:

The lesson had started almost 15 minutes ago and Riddle knock at the door.

You were stressed knowing you would had to face their glance on you with no "protection". Your past had really destroyed your confidence and you already put you face down embarassed.

Riddle noticed that and just said "it's okay." It was much like a whisper but you sweared you heard it and you look up at him right away shocked.

Was he conforting you? He looked away and seemed embarassed as soon as you looked back.

Meanwhile, Slughorn had opened the door taking you away from your thoughts. "Ah miss Y/N!!, We were starting to worry !where were you?" He asks with a concern voice.

"Oh I-" you tried to replied but Riddle cut you off.

"She wasn't feeling well and had diffucult to come there. I ask her if she wanted to go to the nurse but she didn't want to skip your class professor." He said in a calm voice, speaking the words perfectly even if this was a lie. But it was better like that, you didn't want to talk about what happend like that where everybody could hear or see.

"My my...yeah you're a bit pale... Thank you to be so concern about my class Y/N!!" Slughorn said smiling. "You can go sit together, they are only two places left in there! Everybody as their pair for this lesson!"

"Thank you professor. "You said smiling weakly.

"And if you don't feel well, feel free to go to the nurse or ask for anything !" You nod, that was really kind from him.
"And thank you Tom!" He add while Tom nod saying "anytime professor."

You both go to your place in the bottom of the class. Lily turn to you waving at you and whispered a "are you okay?" You awnsered nodding and smiling to her. You were feeling bad for Always worrying her.

All of the other people in the class looked at you with wide eyes and contempling your face for a minute, you didn't know why but they all look away in one time looking scared. You then took a look a Riddle that were making one of his favorit annoyed face.

Everybody fear him and adore him at the same time... That's kind of crazy.

He passed you the potion book and took you out of your thoughts and you began to work on the potion from today.

You didn't talk, until Riddle broke the silence.
"Do you think you know me better than them?" He said while cuting some ingredients without looking at you.

"Excuse me?" You said looking at him worried of what he might have Heard.

"In the bathroom...you claimed that they didn't really know me and that I wasn't worthy at all. What do you know about me." He said turning his head to you.

You didn't reply immediatly, you could tell he was serious and curious about that. But you couldn't tell him that you were feeling this dark energy from him. So you search for something else.

"You call me mudblood once." You said focusing you attention back to work.

"I didn't meant that...."he said trying to read you.

"But you said it." You simply replied.

"Is it just for that that you hate me so much ?" He said After a little silence.

You looked at him upset and it confused him. "Do you think it is not an enough reason actually? Why would you care anyway and what on earth where you doing in the girl bathroom ?" You said with bit of annoyance in your tone.

He didn't reply, looking for his words but hé didn't want to upset you more so je just said: "I saw them pushing you there..."

"Whatever..." You said not looking at him anymore.

"Be carefull when you talk to me!" His tone change. "Even more when I just helped you!" He said pushing a bit on the cauldron that make fall some water on you.

"Oh..!" You panicked, you knew it won't take only a few second before you mermaid tail appeared after you touch the water.
"Next time don't help me .."you said before running out from the class under the confused look from everybody.

Riddle was even more confused and didn't understand what just happend. Some people looked at him but hé didn't care.

His mind was even more invaded by you.
